My life I live not for me
God, the Keeper, of souls set free
Eternal with Him I shall forever be
Where all I’m wanting is for He.

But down I wait in this place
Longing to see my Savior’s face
A dream of what is up in space
I thank Him for His tender grace.

His Word I hold it dear
For I live with fear
I know He does my prayers do hear
And thankful I am for each good year.

Older and older I do get
The tides of time in my body does set
I have surely not gone yet
But Him I cannot forget.

My time has met me at the door
And now I bow and hit the floor
A wave from sea then out to shore
My life was not a daily chore.

Glad I am from this world I’m done
Where all can freely run
And here I have much fun
Rejoicing and praising God and His Son.
